Your support makes all the difference.Dele Alli has joined the same agency that represents Jose Mourinho, Tottenham team-mate Harry Kane and Cristiano Ronaldo as he looks to take advantage of his status as one of Europe's most exciting young footballers.
The 21-year-old has signed a deal with CAA Sports - who also represent Carlo Ancelotti, James Rodriguez and Nico Rosberg - in a bid to maximise his commercial value.
“I'm delighted to join CAA at this important time in my career," England midfielder Alli said in a statement released by the agency.
"I'm excited for the future working alongside them.
"It was clear from the start that this is a company that can help me maximise my potential off the field."
CAA Sports are a division of a leading Hollywood agency, the Creative Artists Agency, and will work closely with Alli's best friend and manager, 21-year-old Harry Hickford, in order to "amplify and enhance Dele's commercial portfolio globally".
"Dele is one of the most exciting players in the world presently, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with him at this pivotal moment in his career, helping to accomplish his personal and professional goals," said Matthew O'Donohoe, of CAA Sports.
Alli left long-term agent Rob Segal earlier this year and was courted by a number leading representatives and agencies.
